Jenny,
Yesterday marked 7 months since you passed away.  I am and will continue to stay in touch with Jenn.  Rusty is ok, we just text from time to time.  That's Rusty!!
If I wake up and think of you I have a difficult start but I know it will get better.  Its just that we did connect early mornings for many reasons, haha...
Miss talking to you, you always had my back, thank you for that!!
Please pray for all of us here, as if I need to ask!!
We loved you in life and we continue to love you in your eternal life.  AMEN!
Leo

Hello Jenny, me again..just wanted to say that Jenn's divorce will be ok.. We are trying to stay in touch with her and daughters as much as we can.  They are doing good, and I am sure they will be ok.  We still miss you terribly and always will, do keep interceding for all of us. 

I love you,
Leo

Hello Jenny, well it looks like we got through the holdays.  It was hard at moments but I tried to focus on the many laughs we had on eating and eating and never worrying about a diet until after the 1st of the year.  My most difficult moments where when I recalled Mom, you and the kids coming over to help make tamales.  Oh what a time we had and then some.  I would find masa on the bottom of my cabinets a month after!! Haha that was your doing funny lady....love you and miss you forever!!

Jenny, yesterday marked 2 months you have been gone.  It also was Jenn's bday.
I know she misses you so much so I know her day was hard.  I myself am having a difficult time, not wanting you back in the pain and suffering you endeared but missing you, Our conversations, seeing you now it seems so little, and just knowing you were there with me on everything. That will not get any better, I will always miss you so much. If I didn't say it enough I want to say it now I loved you and thought of you not just as my sister but as my best friend.  We once went to see the movie Beaches, the reason being because that was our lives, always together through thick and thin. Thank you, I pray I live my live well and in your light so that one day I can be where you are and we can again hold hands, laugh, dance and enjoy each other. Jenny, my hero I know you were so brave and strong not just for all of us but because that was who you were.  Say hi to mom and all our loved ones!!

Jenny, you were my sister, but you were also my best friend.  That meant the world to me and now you are in heaven with mom, Lisa, my littliest angel, Mamito, Papito and all our loved ones and family members that have gone before us.  I almost visualized the reunion for you because you so deserved that and more.  I know that with time it will be better for me, that I will not hurt so much, but til then one thing I do know is that I will always miss you! You knew me better then I knew myself.  All the childhood memories, all the dances, all the boy issues, you knew it all.  I talked so much to you I am sure your ears got full, but you never were not there.  Thank you sister/best friend, I love you and will continue to love you forever!! We will see each other again, Leo

Thank you, Tia Jenny, for your generous nature, your radiant energy, your kind heart. May your love continue to fill the lives of all who knew you, enriching us and encouraging us.

Tia....as I struggle to understand why, I hear your voice telling us not to worry.  I was blessed to have you in my life and sharing you with my husband and daughters.  I will always have you in a special place in my heart.  I am thankful to have been a part of your journey home to be with God and to see Nana.  Your humor and unconditional love is what my daughters will cherish and treasure.  Until we see you again. We love you and will miss you dearly. Watch over us.  Go Cowboys!

You always had a warm smile and friendly words for everyone who came into contact with you. Your love and pride in your sweet family was obvious to all. You're in our thoughts and prayers. Sending love and blessings to you and all your family. - the Salkowski family

Jenny My Friend,
You're truly missed. I have been blessed to know you for over 15 years since the marriage of your son, Rusty and my daughter, Karrie.Thank you for giving me a wonderful Son-in-Law. A great husband to Karrie and father to Myely, Ellie, and Jaya. He has a heart of gold and is a wonderful caring person. A great brother in law to Sally (Sebastian), Thomas, Clayton (Dana). A good Uncle to Sally J, Nicholas, Peyton, and Bennett. All a reflection of his mother's love.
Our families, have fond memories of being together for holidays, birthdays, going out for dinners, grandchildren in assorted  school performances, and lots and lots of laughter.  Your two beautiful children, Rusty and Jennifer, all grandchildren and great grandchildren were all part of our story. Job well done. 
My love and prayers for strength and peace to all her family, What a blessing it was to know you! Our family will never forget you! 
I know it's a very difficult time but I want you all to know how proud I am of all of you. There will be many signs, we just need to be still, be quiet, listen and look. A beautiful sunrise or sunset, a hummingbird that lingers longer than normal, butterflies, beautiful garden, clouds in the shape of hearts, a nice storm over the mountains of Tucson, memories of funny things she said, and so many other signs she is near. Take care of each other. 
LOVE FOREVER, Kathy Andrews

Aunt Jenny,
I have such fond memories of you.  You were an amazing women who raised two amazing children.  To Rusty, Jennifer and their families I pray for strength, comfort and peace in the days and months ahead.  May you cherish the precious memories of your amazing mom!

Jenny,  
The first time I met you was in Oracle, Arizona, when Rusty and Jennifer were about 10 and 11 years old. Your were warm and welcoming to me . You were so good with Rusty and Jennifer as their Mother. No matter what was going on in life with the children, you were always their for them with unconditional love. We have remained friends for many years, and thru your sickness prayed so many times for you and the kids and grandkids and great grandaughters. A family of wonderful strength, amazing love and character are left to carry on the way you lived and treated others. You will always be in my memories and heart always.......Patty Martin

Dear Jen, We know you are in a better place now with the Lord and family and friends. You were such a joy to know. We will all miss you.

Jen I am very gratefull for the love care and concern you always showed not just to me but to everyone you came in contact with. I remember the night wemet atthe fort on a Thursday and that saturday I came to Douglas and caught you at work at Sears. I must say from that day on my life changed alot to the better I was just an old soldier just got home from Viet Nam and found the girl of my dreams, from there you gave me the best gift in life my two wonderfull children Rusty and Jennifer J and remember that J stood for Jim and Jenny and it always will.  Jenny I could write a book here, but before I shed more tears and close I just want to say to you give that wonderfull mom of yours a hug, tell my folks hello and tell Jimmy Joe to clean my house cause i will soon join you all in the glory of Heaven. always your Jim

Hey Nana, I hope you're enjoying heaven. God knows he truly acquired an angel with you! Thank you for always treating our family like your own. You were a strong, amazing woman. Watch down on all of us and guide us in the right direction. You are deeply missed by many!
